    Anyone heard of this? Cannot locate in my references. Went online and researched; only found TenSal (saline) and Tensol (a site in Malta). Given context, TenSal is not a candidate IMO.

    Context: However, toward the end of the hospitalization, she was barely able to take any medication or liquid, and we discontinued all oral medications. We did continue the patient on suspension of Roxanol and Ativan and ---TENSOL--- to keep her as comfortable as possible. In fact, she was comfortable throughout her hospice stay.
